For People
Sick of name brand clothes.
Sick of Cocaine and crack
Which brings sickness to blacks,
Sick of swoll head rappers
With their sicker-than raps
Clappers and gats
Makin&; the whole sick world collapse
The facts are gettin& sick
Even sicker perhaps
Stickabush to make a bundle to escape this synapse

<div style="color: red;">Way too many to name</div>8. <span style="font-size: 20pt;">What are your favorite artist from these genres and why</span>?<br />
<div style="color: red;">Queen, Stevie nicks, Chicago, Marvin Gaye, incubus, Paul Simon, Michael Jackson, Sade. To me they thought out of the box, and either had a dope voice or dope musicians.</div>9. <span style="font-size: 20pt;">Do you think lyricism is better rap or in other music such as Soul, Rock, etc</span>:<br />
<div style="color: red;">Its, all feeling and emotion. I think it’s harder to come up with a rap , can’t say it's better because no matter the genre a songwriter is a songwriter Paul Simon was a beast</div>10.<span style="font-size: 20pt;"> I see you produce what interested you in this aspect of rap music<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<div style="color: red;">For one the cost.and i learned it's not what you use, it’s the sounds you own. So I stacked up on my sounds instead of equipment.saves dollars and makes sense.</div>13. <span style="font-size: 20pt;">To do it matter what equipment you have</span><br />
<div style="color: red;">Not to me, if I use a spoon and a beer can to make a beat and it’s hot I’m going to run with it. I will say the programs and effects make the difference.</div>14.<span style="font-size: 20pt;"> Do you sample and why</span><br />
<div style="color: red;">Yes. some of my hottest beats are samples, can’t really say why, but if I hear something I like my brain makes a beat almost instantly...chop it an smash it</div>15. <span style="font-size: 20pt;">Do think rap music is<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<div style="color: red;">Better when artist produce and raps</div><div style="color: red;">For me it helps, it makes it easier. But I like when artist come together.best of both worlds</div>16. <span style="font-size: 20pt;">Who are some your rap influences<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<img alt="" aria-busy="false" aria-describedby="fbPhotoTheaterCaption" class="spotlight" height="217" src="http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/45535_430603155896_500560896_4751387_1240206_n.jpg" width="320" /><br />
<br />
. Where are you from originally :<br />
I was born and raised in New Bern, North Carolina but I stay in Raleigh, NC. Thats my Home now.<br />
<br />
2. What Are your first memories of music :<br />
That's a tough one. But my first memories of music had to be when my dad was practicing on his keyboard and his saxophone. My father has been playing music for 20+ years and he's been teaching music for 10+ years. One of my favorite memories was of me when I was still a toddler and I climbed into my dad's keyboard stool and I started banging on the keys pretending to play the keys. Those were good times.<br />
<br />
3. What are first memories of rap music<br />
Man cookouts in the Summer time. Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince always got play at the cookouts and family reunions. In my area back then R&B/Old School music so we weren't really getting what everyone was getting. But what hip hop we did get was pretty solid. Some of my cousins bumped a little De La Soul and A Tribe Called Quest. Other than the other commercial stuff out there like MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice, etc I really wasn't raised around a whole bunch of hip hop. I had to go out and get an understanding of it on my own and I had to do my homework.<br />
<br />
4. When did you know you want to make rap music<br />
I wanted to start making rap music when my boys got me started rapping. I was really into church as a kid and some of my boys wanted to start a gospel hip hop group. My other homie was rapping about other stuff that he was hearing on the radio... ya know a whole bunch of gangsta stuff and he was freestyling and thats how it really got started for me. He just started tryin to get me to freestyle but I felt more comfortable writing and then I heard Mos Def and Talib Kweli's Blackstar Album and the rest is history. Pun intended<br />
<br />
5. What were the first songs you wrote<br />
My first few songs were Christian type joints... but I kinda fell away from that for a few reasons at the time. But there was a black history program at my school that was going to have a spot for a rap performance. So my teacher made the beat and got all the guys together including myself and we all wrote out our own verses. The song was called "Black Man, Born Free".<br />
<br />
6. What other genres are you interested in other then rap music<br />
Other genres... hmmm... That has to be undoubtedly Soul Music and Jazz. I have an ecletic style. I like Gospel, Rock, Country, Bluegrass, Dubstep/Techno/Electronica, Alternative, etc. The list goes on but Soul Music and Jazz just touched me in a special way. It still does to this day.<br />
<br />
7. What are favorite albums from these other genres and why?<br />
My favorite Jazz album of all time has to be John Coltrane's "A Love Supreme". That album means a lot to me because Coltrane is a personal influence in my life. He truly made music that came from his soul and that album wasn't just an ordinary album. Coltrane said it was his first offering to God after he quit heroine. And it was the first of many albums to display that type of devotion he had for God. You don't find a lot of people really making music with the purpose to better themselves in mind. It's mostly about expression and thats what art should be about. Expression... but Coltrane took it to another level to me.<br />
As for Rock it has to be Pink Floyd's Darkside Of The Moon. That has to be one of the most creative concept albums I've ever heard of in my life. Pink Floyd reinvented themselves with that album after their lead singer dropped out of the group and went into seclusion. It was simply a flawless album.<br />
As far as hip hop goes... I don't think I have a favorite. Most would say Illmatic or Resonable Doubt. I wouldn't say I have a favorite but I do have some that have really influenced me. Such as Mos Def's Black On Both Sides, and Common's "Like Water For Chocolate". Especially Mos Def and Talib Kweli's Blackstar Album. There are a few other honorable mentions such as A Tribe Called Quest's "Midnight Murauders", De La Soul's "Grind Date", Kanye West's "College Dropout", and Lupe Fiasco's "Food and Liquor". I gotta mention Illmatic and Reasonable Doubt. But I could go on and on about dope albums.<br />
<br />
8. What are your favorite artist from these genres and why?<br />
Thats a good question. It has to be guys like John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Jaco Pastorius, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, The Beetles, Bob Dylan, Stevie Wonder, and Ray Charles. They were innovators. They made some of the most timeless music I've heard in my life. I know I've said that a few times but to me thats the key. Music that ages well and still gets spins years and years after the album is released... and it definitely says a lot when you're music is still getting play years and years after the original artist is dead. When you have artists doing covers of your songs years and years after you've retired and for a lot of those guys when you're dead... that speaks volumes about the music that you've created because you haven't only just created great music. You've created a lasting memory. You've impacted lives that you may never see and you create a long lasting legacy. I always wonder what it would be like to be immortal. I plan to make music that will live on and impact people long after I'm gone. Not only that... but they taught me how to think outside of the box and not to be afraid to express myself and make music I can be satisfied with. The artists I mentioned dropped music that got me through tough times and some sticky jams. Those memories are tied to that music too. I'm sure there are A LOT of names I forgot to mention but those right there are the ones that really stick out to me.<br />
<br />
9. Do you think lyricism is better rap or in other music such as soul,rock,etc<br />
I don't think lyricism can be greater in any genre really. As long as the music has a message or is painting a picture for the listener that's all that should matter in my opinion. For instance... Lets take Mos Def's song "There Is A Way" off of his album Tru3 Magic. He pretty much keeps up the same 2 or 3 lines he has in the whole entire song. It isn't Lupe lyrical at all but the message is truly the most important thing in the song that people should be hearing in my opinion. "There is a way, No Matter what they say" and "Don't Give Up, Don't Give In". That's all he really says in the song. Now there are some individuals in hip hop that are less lyrical than others... but I don't knock them or whatever. They do their thing and they do it well. As long as they stay in their lane thats cool with me. Just don't go outside your own perverbial box to prove a point... do you. I do my thing and I know that others may not feel my music which is why other artists are out there to appeal to those people that may not feel my music. <br />
<br />
10. I see you produce what interested you in this aspect of rap music<br />
Well all the legends I grew up listening to like Dilla, Premier, Pete Rock, 9th Wonder... Then Kanye really got me interested into it. I always wanted to know how these guys did it. Then I started messing with Fruity Loops (FL Studios) and just studying the game. Learned different techniques and experiemented. There is a method to everyone's madness and it's always interesting to view how other artistic minds process and work things. Well at least it is that way to me.<br />
<br />
11. What equipment do you use<br />
I use Fruity Loops, Reason 4, Pro Tools, The MC Roland 909, The M-Audio Axiom 64 Key Midi Controller, My Ocean Bass guitar, My Hartke Bass Amp Head. <br />
<br />
12. Why you choose to you use this equipment<br />
Well some of it isn't by choice. lol But they offer me a lot of variety and they deliver the goods. I get results. Thats the most important thing to me. <br />
<div class="GBThreadMessageRow_ReferrerLink"></div><div class="GBThreadMessageRow_Body_Attachment"></div><div bindpoint="root" class="GBThreadMessageRow clearfix"><div class="GBThreadMessageRow_Image"></div><div class="GBThreadMessageRow_Main"><div class="GBThreadMessageRow_Info"></div><div class="GBThreadMessageRow_Body"><div class="GBThreadMessageRow_Body_Content">13. Does it matter what equipment you have<br />
No not really. It's about what you do with it... not what equipment you have. Some guys don't even have half of what I have and have made dope music with it. All 9th Wonder had was Fruity Loops 3 when he made all the instrumentals for Little Brother's Classic album "The Listening"<br />
<br />
14. Your mix tape [A] Summer Soulstice what was the inspiration behind the album<br />
If you really want to know. It was a Woman... A very special woman in my life. She gave me the amount of tracks she wanted to hear on it and set the deadline... and I got it done. I mean I wanted to put something out but I wasn't sure how I wanted to execute it and she provided the inspiration for me to make it happen.<br />
<br />
15. I see you did some production on the album. Do think rap music is better when artist produce and raps.<br />
I wouldn't say that... But it definitely does give you a greater edge in my opinion. Especially if your beats are pretty dope and you can still rap circles around the competition. The best I see doin it now is Big K.R.I.T. That guy has some pretty dope beats and he can kill his tracks lyrically as well. But there is something about two individuals coming together and taking their talents and combining them to make some truly beautiful music that is dope as well. <br />
<br />
16. Who are some your rap influences<br />
I'd have to say Mos Def, Common, Talib Kweli, Lupe Fiasco, Nas, Jay Z, Elzhi, Kanye West, Q Tip, Phife Dog, Phonte/Big Pooh (Little Brother), Chaundon as well. He's pretty dope. He's always on his grind.<br />
<br />
17. Who are some your production influences<br />
I'd have to say J Dilla first and foremost. His music changed my life. Madlib, Dj Premeier, 9th Wonder, Pete Rock, The Justice League, Ski Beatz, Just Blaze, Kanye West, The Alchemist, 88 Keys and all the producers I personally know like my homies, Millie Vaughn, Vino, and Ill Will. Even though Will doesn't produce as much as he used to he kept me sharp and on my toes. I think thats one reason why I always got better because I had someone that I felt could keep me on my toes ya know?<br />
<br />
18. What are some your favorite raps<br />
My favorite of all time is probably "Respiration" By Blackstar (Mos Def and Talib Kweli) ft. Common. That record really was the blueprint to the emcee I am today. I love that song and my favorite verses of all time are on that one song. <br />
<br />
19. What are some your favorite beats<br />
Man I can't even goin into that. I got a lot of Dilla jams I love. Ski Beatz is really killin it right now and 9th Wonder keeps getting better and better all the time. Just Blaze got a lot of em, and so does Kanye. I can't even answer that question man. There are too many beats to name. lol<br />
20. Top 5 producers<br />
1.) J Dilla<br />
2.) Pete Rock<br />
3.) Ski Beatz<br />
4.) Just Blaze<br />
5.) Kanye West<br />
<br />

1.) Mos Def<br />
2.) Common<br />
3.) Lupe Fiasco<br />
4.) Big K.R.I.T.<br />

<br />
I wish I could mention the local emcees I know too like...<br />
Drique London, Tuscon, Ghost Dog, Live L!ght, Lazarus, S.Gold, Sky Blew, Azon Blaze, Rome Jeterr, a lot of dope cats around here in my area. Most of the world thinks it's just J.Cole... We have so much more talent here in this state its not even funny. <br />
<br />

(some I see them today they say they don't rap no more I’m wondering why cause I thought they were dope)but seeing him take his dream to the next level and continue to pursuing them after high school is to me the amazing thing. He gone on to produce songs for people like Trey Songz, -Shyne, Katy Perry,and Atozzio.And if I'm not mistakein he's done some ghost prodution work as well.I can remember asking him about music when I was in school I always enjoy his answer to stuff i knew nothing about like sampling time. I rember asking him why the complication never came out .and rember him saying it was'nt right? I thinking it sound alright to me .I guess he has different ear then what i have .I thankful that he decide to do the interview and he was gracious enough to do it and here's the interview links at the bottom of the Page.</strong> <br />

To me doesn’t real have a good flow from track to track I' remember about 9 years asking somebody about the blueprint they said that it was his best album I look at like he was crazy but you know he most likely telling the truth .reasonable doubt is flawed but you still can hear the hunger the grittiness even thought he put "aint no nigga" up there the stories on album real vivid some much some would believe there true .How he builds the character throughout the album likes it all together.<br />

I was playing mountains with his records and he came in and caught me, but it was good because he came in and showed me how to take care of a record. When C.L. Smooth and me made All Souled Out we were really anxious. C.L. had a very distinctive voice that no one else had. And that’s what first attracted me to him. When we got to work it was just easy to knock joints out because we were having so much fun making music and we were very young. While we were working on our first full-length album [Mecca & The Soul Brother], we decided to throw together a six-song EP out to let people hear what we were doing. We we’re creating a new sound; a new way of sampling, producing and rhyming. We put ‘The Creator’ out as well as ‘Go With The Flow,’ and the title track ‘Mecca &The Soul Brother.’<br />
My production style came from the records I listened to when I was growing up. James Brown was the biggest influence, the first guy to influence my music style. I didn’t really start making beats until I was 13 or 14 years old. Later on, I was sampling jazz artists like Donald Byrd, Freddie Hubbard, and Miles Davis. And on the soul side there was Barry White, Isaac Hayes, and of course Sly & The Family.<br />
People like Russell Simmons, Marley Marl and Howie T had the ‘80s. But when the ‘90s came along, we wanted to come out with music that people were not sampling. When I started producing, I was working with the SP 12, which was the most popular drum machine at the time. Back then you had to have an external hard drive just to save more time on the drum machine. This was a new age. Nowadays, you have all types of production equipment and [studio software] out there. By the time the SP 1200 came out, that’s when I was really getting into it. Some of the music we were finding was crazy and we experimented a lot. That’s how the Pete Rock sound came about…the horns, the drums. I made a whole lot of beats on the SP [laughs].”<br />

<div id="image_title">"Don't Curse"--Heavy D & The Boyz (feat. Big Daddy Kane, Kool G. Rap, Grand Puba, CL Smooth, Q-Tip, Pete Rock, 1991)</div><div id="image_desc">“Heavy D is family…that’s my real cuz. My career started because of him. He was the first believer. After him introducing me to everyone in the neighborhood people started to latch on to my DJ skills. I got a job DJ’ing at New York’s WBLS, and that just blew me away. I was the youngest DJ on the radio back in ’87. I think I was around 16 and I was Djing with Marley Marl on his In Control rap show! That was the greatest feeling in the world to be on the radio waves.<br />
Was I worried about rapping on the same song as those great rappers like Kool G. Rap, Kane and Puba? Of course I was [laughs]. But like I said, Heavy is family. He used to always gas me like, ‘If you don’t do this rap I won’t do this with you anymore.’ He would encourage me to try different things. I used to sit in the studio when he was making Big Tyme and Peaceful Journey. ‘Don’t Curse’ came about because the actual sample was so funky. It was an old hit from Booker T. & the MG’s called ‘Hip Hugger.’ And it had that feel to Heavy like, ‘Hey, let me try to make a catchy song and get the hardest rappers to rhyme on the song and do them, but just leave the curses out.’ That was a great idea. Heavy is very intelligent when it comes to concepts.”<br />

<div id="image_title">Mecca & the Soul Brother--Pete Rock & CL Smooth (1992)</div><div id="image_desc">“I remember spending nights in the Green House studios in Manhattan and waking up with ideas while we were working on Mecca & The Soul Brother. I would wake up, run to the back of the room and make music. Green House was my home away from home. I had the key to the city with that studio. Green Street was also the place where the Bomb Squad did a lot of their music. They recorded Ice Cube’s Amerikkka’s Most Wanted there and I witnessed some of the tracks being made. It was crazy to see all the equipment they were using; just seeing a bunch of guys behind the boards working on tracks.<br />
I loved the way the singer’s voice came off on the record [I sampled for] ‘Straighten It Out.’ It felt a certain way to me. I chopped it up, used the vocals for the chorus, and had C.L. rhyme over it. As for ‘They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y.),’ I realized the song was going to mean a lot to people when I got extremely emotional in the studio as I was making the beat and mixing the song down. The final mix made me cry because I had lost a close friend Trouble T-Roy, who was Troy Dixon one of the dancers for Heavy D & The Boyz. ‘Reminisce’ was a tribute to him.<br />
Troy was a guy that grew up with us in the neighborhood. He had the element of everything in one person. He was a street guy, a community person…he taught me how to do a lot of things…he taught me how to stand up for myself. He died when him and one of Kid ‘N Play’s people were playing around by the edge of the stage and throwing empty garbage cans at each other. He slipped and fell 20 feet. That was the worst thing that could have happened to us.<br />
The music for ‘Reminisce…’ just spoke to my soul. I was looking for something to dedicate to Troy and I came across the sample from a good friend. He showed me the record and I explored the music on the album. I knew the song was special when I seen the reaction from the record label and from friends and people who I would play it for. I have never seen that emotional reaction from people before in my life about a rap song. People say ‘Reminisce…’ is the greatest hip-hop song of all time. I can’t say that. But I think it’s one of the greatest songs Pete Rock has ever done in his entire life. I climbed to the top of the mountain with that one. I think Troy was somewhere enjoying every minute of it.”<br />

<div id="image_title">"Shut 'Em Down" remix--Public Enemy (1992)</div><div id="image_desc">“As I said earlier, I used to watch the Hank and Keith Shocklee and the Bomb Squad in the studio. That’s how the remix for ‘Shut ‘Em Down’ came about. Eddie F and the Untouchables, who I was working under his company at the time, would go out and find us work. I landed a Public Enemy remix and I was very, very happy. I love Chuck D to the day I die. I would tell him how happy I was and how I wanted to impress Public Enemy so bad. This was a new sound for P.E. I never heard a reaction from them until one day Chuck looked at me and gave me a hug. He said ‘Shut ‘Em Down’ was great. Chuck really loved the remix. That’s all I needed to hear.”</div><a href="http://vibe.com/photo-galleries/full-clip-pete-rock-runs-down-his-entire-catalogue-featuring-cl-smooth-run-dmc-publi/5#tp"><img ?="" alt=" title=" class="imagecache imagecache-image-full-size" height="320" src="http://vibe.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/image-full-size/images/Heavy%20DBlue%20funkPete%20Rock.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />
<div id="image_title">"Blue Funk"--Heavy D & Da Boyz (1993)</div><div id="image_desc">“Blue Funk is a classic hip-hop album. Compared to all of Heavy’s albums before it was a step in another direction. People didn’t expect to hear that hard of a sound from him. It was like, ‘Wow, Hev is a little more street!’ Hip-hop was becoming more street after gangsta rap. The West Coast stomped a mud hole in the game. Everyone was on some gangsta shit. You remember ‘You Can’t See What I Can See?’ That was another hard joint that Hev was chopping niggas heads off with his lyrics.”<br />

<div id="image_title">"Down With The King"--Run-D.M.C. (1993)</div><div id="image_desc">“I was scared to do this song [laughs]. It was such a difficult situation because we had to convince Russell Simmons to like the song and understand who Pete Rock was. This is Run-D.M.C. we are talking about. This is one of the greatest groups of all time and Russell started out with them. To listen to a young producer like me, I was only 20 at the time. Russell was like, ‘How old is this guy? He doesn’t know anything.’ I told him this was the new ‘90s shit…you have to get with it. But Russell wasn’t with it. For a while I was losing hope that it was even going to happen. But Jam Master Jay was with me on it! He came to my house one day ringing my mother’s doorbell [laughs]. I open the door and it’s Jay at the door. He was like, ‘Yo, let’s go make this song. Don’t worry about shit…watch this. We are going to make this happen!’<br />
When we were recording ‘Down With The King,’ DMC was easy, but Run wasn’t so easy in the beginning. But then we finally convinced him. We ended up doing the song at Green Street and we presented it to Russell, who still didn’t get it, but the powers that be overruled Russell’s vote. It was just undeniable. I couldn’t believe Jay helped me accomplished this. If it wasn’t for him that song wouldn’t have happened. When the song came out, Run-D.M.C. was surprised. It shot right to no. 1 on the Billboard rap charts with a bullet. People wanted to see them win. I was just happy to construct a musical piece that they would get on.”<br />

<div id="image_title">"The World Is Yours"--Nas (1994)</div><div id="image_desc">“When Nas’ Illmatic album was done it blew me away because everyone was silently competing with each other. I knew I was working alongside producers that I liked. I was competing against DJ Premier and Large Professor. But I couldn’t do it with just one song [laughs]. I was like, ‘Yo Nas, let me do some more songs!’ But at that time certain things didn’t work out properly. There were things said and things that were not done in a timely fashion and people got upset. So the bottom line is I only ended up doing one song.<br />
When I listen to a song like ‘The World Is Yours,’ I’m amazed at the lyrics. I used to stand back and look at Nas like, ‘Who are you? Are you for real?’ [laughs] His voice, the things he would say…you could just picture what he was saying. Nas was the actual lens of a movie camera. That’s how Nas hit me. Nas made me sing the chorus on ‘The World Is Yours!’ He was like, ‘Yo, I want you to sing this…’ I was like, ‘Nah, I don’t want to sing.’ Then he started singing the chorus too me [Pete sings]: ‘Whose World is this?…the world is yours, the world is yours…It’s mine, it’s mine…’ So I ended up doing it somehow, someway. We were practicing it in my basement and we recorded ‘The World Is Yours’ at Battery Records. Thank you to Large Professor for introducing me to Nas.”<br />

(1994) </div><div id="image_desc">“Due to people just doing business a new way and me being young and not understanding the publishing side of things, I let certain things fall through the cracks [when it came to ‘Juicy’]. Puffy came over with Big and I had the drums playing and Puff was interested in what he heard. He asked me if I was making it for CL Smooth and I was like, ‘Nah.’ Big was standing there, but he was more interested in seeing how I made beats. He was requesting certain interlude beats. He was like, ‘I want this song you put between these two songs on your album.’<br />
I made this beat called ‘In The Flesh’ that was on the Main Ingredient album. And I made that beat in front of Biggie. He was like, ‘Oh shit…I just wanted to see how you did it, son.’ He was bugging. But Biggie wasn’t even interested in ‘Juicy.’ Next thing you know, ‘Juicy’ comes out and I don’t get credit. I really felt a way about it after Big passed away. We didn’t get to have the relationship that Premier had with him. I had a lot of music for Big, but it just didn’t happen.”<br />

<div id="image_title">The Main Ingredient--Pete Rock & CL Smooth (1994)</div><div id="image_desc">“’I Got A Love’ was actually a song that I actually put together in 1993. A lot of the beats for The Main Ingredient were made a year earlier. When I made ‘I Got A Love,’ I thought it had a good feel to it. I always loved that Philly sound. The music I used was from an old Gamble & Huff sample. That sound is immaculate.<br />
By this time, Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth were becoming [well-known]. We had a Sprite commercial, and we did it because I thought as long as you keep the music the same you can’t sell-out. But if you let people tell you how to sound and what to rhyme over then you are a sell-out. We kept it hip-hop. It was like, ‘All right, you want us to do this commercial? Then I want to keep my music the same because this is Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth expressing ourselves.'<br />
When we released The Main Ingredient, the West Coast battle was won when it came to selling records. Dr. Dre, Snoop and them were smashing it. Unfortunately, Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth didn’t last. From the outside looking in our split looked nasty. It had a lot to do with business. That’s all I can say about that. I believe if we had maintained through the evil forces, which had a lot to do with people getting in our ears, we would have stayed together. People were dividing us to knock a popular man off his throne. It happens in this game and everybody goes through it. I always attempted to work with C.L. over the years. Even when I did my solo albums I would call him up to do a song and he would come to the studio. Now we are on tour overseas doing shows.”<br />

<div id="image_title">"The Bitch In Yoo"--Common (1996)</div><div id="image_desc">“Ice Cube was mad at me a little bit because of this song [laughs]. But I think he got over it. At that time it was really fiery and Common felt dissed. When he came to me, he came to me with passion like, ‘Pete, I need something hard…’ We went to my man’s Rob-O’s house to work on it. I didn’t even use my own equipment. My man had an SP, some turntables and records around. And I had a stack of my own records. I went through the stack and I found an album that I started fucking with and the next thing you know Common was like, ‘Yeah, Pete…yeah Pete!’<br />
When I heard Common’s lyrics it was fucking perfection. I knew feelings were going to be hurt [laughs]. I just thought, ‘When Cube hears this he’s going to want to fight.’ I didn’t even think that would be the beat for ‘The Bitch In Yoo.’ I’m my own worst enemy at times. I was like, ‘Nah, I can make something better.’ But Common made it into something. He made me great on that one.”<br />

<div id="image_title">"Put It On" remix--Big L (1995)</div><div id="image_desc">“I made this Big L remix at home. We used to play it on WBLS back in the day when I was with Marley. When I met Big L, it was just a friendship thing. He knew I made beats and I knew he rapped. I used to go pick him up in my black Honda Accord; I would scoop him up in Harlem right on 139th. We would drive around New York to the Bronx and he would just be rhyming over my cassettes that were filled with beats. L would just be going in! That was the illest time I’ve ever spent with Big L.<br />
What can you say about him? Listen to what he said and how he delivered his rhymes. Look at the noise that was surrounding him…Roc-A-Fella was trying to sign him, this person and that person was trying to sign him. To me, Big L was the greatest thing that DITC ever produced. That’s not to disrespect Diamond D, OC, Fat Joe or Lord Finesse. You know how you have the golden child in a group. Big L was that person to me.”<br />

He was real smooth and laid back. The way he flowed over a beat was crazy. So Rob, Grap and Marco Polo formed a group. At the time I had gotten a deal over at Elektra Records and took INI with me. The label gave me a nice package, nice money, nice everything.<br />
But when Sylvia Rhone came into the picture she changed a lot of things. Me and her didn’t see eye-to-eye. And that’s no disrespect to anyone. That was just the business moves at the time. I didn’t have anybody guiding me to show me what to do. And the streets ended up bootlegging that album. A lot of the copies that came out weren’t even the right actual mixes. So INI’s album kind of fell through the cracks.”<br />

<div id="image_title">Soul Survivor--Pete Rock (1998) </div><div id="image_desc">“I was on the best rap label in hip-hop—Loud Records. You had Mobb Deep, Big Pun, and the Wu-Tang Clan as your label mates? Being around that type of hip-hop just fuels and influences you and makes you want to go make good music. And that’s what happened with Soul Survivor. I didn’t have revenge on my mind. People talk, but I talk with my hands.<br />
‘Tru Master’ was one of those songs. It was my idea to put Kurupt and Inspectah Deck on the same track. I always loved Deck. And Kurupt and I had some history from the early ‘90s and I always wanted to work with him. I had a lot of help from a guy named Chris LaMonica that was working for Loud Records. He helped me recruit a lot of the artists for Soul Survivor. But I already had a lot of the artists in mind.<br />
‘Verbal Murder 2’ (feat. Big Pun, Noreaga and Common) was all about hip-hop spitters…testing your skills…can you climb an oily wall? When you listen to that song those guys are murdering that shit. ‘Strange Fruit’ was also great because of Tragedy…that guy right there was one of the illest rappers. He was ahead of his time when he first started with Marley Marl. As time went on, Tragedy really came into himself as an MC. It was all about that Queensbridge style…that street corner mentality.<br />
There were other artists I was trying to get for Soul Survivor that didn’t happen. I never got the chance to work with LL Cool J. Then there was Jay-Z. I used to chase Jay around forever [laughs]. I used to hang out at certain sessions with Just Blaze at Baseline. We always wanted to work with each other, but it never happened until years later. I love the fact that people call Soul Survivor a classic. Everybody is entitled to make a bad album here and there. But the good ones really stand out.”<br />

He would always wave that conductor’s [baton], but his music was still funky. I had that in mind with PeteStrumentals. I wanted to make a hip-hop instrumental album. I had all these beats that certain rappers would hear and feel they couldn’t do anything with or songs that were straight up instrumentals. I saw what J. Dilla was doing. He really opened my mind to a lot of production [techniques] in his music. I would just think, ‘Wow, how the fuck did he do that?’ I would figure it out by finding something he used or go to a session he was doing. Dilla invited me to his home! His mom told me, ‘You were his favorite producer.’ All I could say was, wow."<br />

I just did it so I could have something done. It had been five years since that first Soul Survivor album. But I was able to work with Slum Village on this one. What drew me to them was J. Dilla and his music. I loved the fact that Baatin, rest in peace and Dilla were free. They were free with what they were doing artistically. With record labels there’s always someone trying to direct you on how to sound so they can get the record played on the radio. To be free means to say what you want and do what you want. I felt that J and Slum Village were doing that.”<br />

<div id="image_title">"Sonny's Missing"--Raekwon (2010)</div><div id="image_desc">“Raekwon had this beat for a very long time. I didn’t think he was using it, so that’s why I used it for a track on New York’s Finest. If you listen to that album you will hear a song called ‘Questions’ on which Royal Flush is rhyming over it. Raekwon calls me one day and says, ‘Hey, listen to this.’ He plays me ‘Sonny’s Missing!’ Now I originally made it for him. It was from a movie we love called The Education of Sonny Carson. Raekwon felt like he had to have it, so I let him use it. I didn’t give a fuck because Rae was my dude and Royal Flush was my dude.”<br />
<br />
<div id="image_title">"The Joy"--Kanye West feat. Jay-Z,Charlie Wilson,Kid Cudi,and Curtis Mayfield (2010)</div><div id="image_desc">“This song happened through a good friend of mind named Barry, who used to bodyguard for Kanye. He was like, ‘Yo, Kanye is looking for you.’ I got in touch with him and Kanye says he wants to bring me to Hawaii to work on an album. So I went out there and I had the nice suite. The hotel was beautiful…Kanye took care of me. We got to the studio and we started working on stuff. He played me ‘Runaway’ and was like, ‘Yo, look…I took your drums from ‘Mecca & The Soul Brother.’ It was a nice way he put it together. I started playing him beats and the ones he liked he put them to the side, and the Curtis Mayfield joint was one of them.<br />
I used to love that song as a kid (Mayfield’s ‘The Makings of You’). I also liked Gladys Knight’s version. But I never heard the live version of it. So when I heard the live one with Curtis and the bass player going crazy I was like, ‘Oh shit….let me fuck with this!’ I was just playing around and experimenting. I was just going to do one part of the sample, but when I heard how Curtis sounded singing it I just said, ‘You know what? Fuck that…’ I put the vocals on it…and that shit was butter.<br />
Now what really fucked me up was Jay-Z being on it. I’m going to tell everybody right now. I had no clue that Kanye was going to do that. Because the way we were working on the song it was just him on it. And I jumped on it and did my adlibs. Then my man Young Guru called me and was like, ‘Yo Pete…I got a surprise for you.’ He played it for me over the phone. At first I couldn’t hear Jay’s voice too good. Guru is like, ‘You heard it?’ I’m like, ‘Nah..’ I was driving so I didn’t want to get pulled over by the cops so I just stopped the car. I heard Jay’s verse and I almost had a heart attack [laughs]! I was like, ‘Is that fucking Jay-Z??? Finally, I can’t believe it.’ But then when ‘The Joy’ didn’t come out on Kanye’s album people on Twitter and Faceback were like they brought his album because they thought it was going to be on there. But hey…maybe it will be on Watch The Throne.”<br />

<div id="image_title">NY's Finest--Pete Rock (2008)</div><div id="image_desc">“I got introduced to Jim Jones through someone who was working with him. I called him up and said, ‘Hey, I’m going to come through your session with some beats.’ We did a song called ‘G’s Up,’ which was on Jim Jones’ first solo album. Then from that came the song ‘We Roll’ from New York’s Finest. This was before Max B got locked up. Jim told me that Max actually convinced him to jump on that song because he didn’t understand how to come in on the beat. Max was kind of helping him out [laughs]. But it came out excellent.<br />
My younger brother actually put me on to Little Brother. He told me how they idolized me. ‘Bring Y’all Back’ was basically a track I wanted Little Brother to do for me. The style of lyrics that they had over the beats I had just matched perfectly. I actually brought 9th Wonder and his whole crew up to my house. They were sleeping on my floor in the basement while I was working on beats in the room. They spent the night…Big Pooh, Phonte, everybody. There were a lot of guys in sleeping bags [laughs].”<br />

Right now I’m working on my next album for this summer album and Tek & Steele’s new album…the whole thing. And I’m working on Pete Rock Vs. DJ Premier. I love Preemo like a brother. This is really happening. I got a good side of people with me [laughs]. I’m going to keep the artists I have under wraps. That project came together from being on tour with Premier in Japan. We would do a show called Pete Rock vs. DJ Premier where we went back and forth with our music onstage and people would just go crazy. They loved the show. We sat in our hotel rooms and ate dinner and talked about doing an album together for hours. It was definitely something I wanted to do. Me and Premier can round up the best rappers and go crazy with this album. I still love this music. And I love producing.”</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Arthur lucashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04352764921096859631noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765990188639276138.post-30665090977225607612011-01-15T10:01:00.000-08:002011-01-22T09:31:04.514-08:00Top Hip Hop Albums Of The Past DecadeYo have'nt listen to alot of music in the last 10 years well good music but here are my favorites of the last 10 tears.The problem with me as a listener is kind don't try alot stuff i'm not aware of it usually takes me along time to listen to something out the norm.the problem with that is i miss alot of good music Like that cus just stayed in my zone.But this list of the best joints i 've listen to over the past decade.<br />
<br />
Looking at this list Reminds why stop listening to alot of mainstream rap . alot these mainstream joint i got up here have same problem there always radio friendly song,or over the top violence. <br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
very introspective album kanye west does 3 tracks on the album.emtional sound like a very mature album.<br />
Religous aspects.he's can of all over the place but good reminds of the things you most likely feel at mid 30 early 40's<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

one of my if not my favorite album of the last decade the strings ,samples ,to me it's the best album he's done.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Az Aziatic<br />
<br />
<img height="320" id="il_fi" src="http://www.hotrapalbums.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/AZ-AZiatic.jpg" style="padding-bottom: 8px; padding-right: 8px; padding-top: 8px;" width="320" /><br />
<br />
very soulful it had that feelin like az knew it was his last go around with a major he was tired try'n to chase a hit record.even though it sounds like most mainstream relase that it has a song for the club "take it off" but still the others songs hold the album together keep the mood of the record .<br />
<br />
Nas God Son<br />
<img height="320" id="il_fi" src="http://www.hotrapalbums.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Nas-Gods-Son.jpg" style="padding-bottom: 8px; padding-right: 8px; padding-top: 8px;" width="320" /><br />
<br />
"Stillmatic" was dope but to me "God Son" was a Notch above. The one throw away song on the album is thug manzion it just does'nt speak to me .When everybody try'n the blueprint sound nas stuck to his own sound .<br />

This were just blaze really stuck out me on the intro to the album (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ByrHJ09wKQg">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ByrHJ09wKQg</a>) the drums, the speeded up sample, Stick 2 the Script it was his coming out party. Of course later on in the decade he did the blueprint which he had produced girls, girls, girls, U Don’t Know, song cry, and lyrical exercise which along with song cry my favorite beats on the album.<br />

Kanye West<br />
<br />
Did beanie Sigel the truth, But I really started feeling him on the Dynasty album He Did "It can't Be Life" which Samples Harold Melvin’s "I miss you"<br />
Blew my mind first time I heard it. "The Late registration". production wise is genius. To me it's amazing that he knew Jon brion was the guy he wanted to arrange the strings.oh yeay don't forget "get by" by talib kweli<br />

<br />
A vocal sample figures prominently in <strong>Fatdan</strong>'s "Surprise" but he takes it further than do many of his bedroom-beat peers. The track sounds vocoded, and the beats jerks forward with the informed hesitance of something slowly, purposefully, coming up to speed. The way that vocal sample and beat work in lockstep, leaving these brief, vacuum-like pauses, is Fatdan's trademark. And when the chorus on "Surprise" kicks in, it uses an ever more slender slice of that vocal sample, whipping it into a taut frenzy like a paddle ball with an especially short string. Also recommended are "Mee," which is so slow you can hear the samples slowly tearing apart, and "Captain," which uses a scraping texture to offset its watery rhythm (post at <a href="http://www.cratekings.com/forum/beats-instrumentals-showcase/860-beat-show.html" jquery1294067918575="11">cratekings.com</a>; "Captain" file at <a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/12477274e3c3f340/" jquery1294067918575="12">zshare.net</a>, "Mee" file at <a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/12477294f093b6c8/" jquery1294067918575="13">zshare.net</a>, "Surprise" file at <a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/124774043e2c28ab/" jquery1294067918575="14">zshare.net</a>). Fatdan has one of the most fully formed and truly unique production styles on the cratekings.com forums, and these three tracks are worth a close <br />
